Scrum Alliance CSM Dumps

Thethree Scrum artifacts—Product Backlog,Sprint Backlog, andIncrement—providetransparencyinto the work and enable opportunities forinspection and adaptation. These artifacts are essential to ensuring the Scrum Team and stakeholders can inspect progress and adapt plans to maximize value.

According to the2020 Scrum Guide:

Product Backlog: Represents all the work needed to achieve the Product Goal and allows inspection and prioritization of upcoming work.

Sprint Backlog: A real-time plan for the Sprint that provides transparency into what the team is working on and allows inspection and adaptation during the Sprint.

Increment: The outcome of the Sprint that is usable and meets the Definition of Done, enabling stakeholders to inspect progress and provide feedback.

Why the other options are incorrect:

A. Burndown Charts, release plan and Product Backlog:Burndown charts and release plans are complementary tools, but they are not official Scrum artifacts.

C. Definition of Done and Product Backlog:The Definition of Done is not an artifact but a shared understanding of when work is complete.

D. Definition of Done, Sprint Backlog and Product Backlog:While the Sprint Backlog and Product Backlog are artifacts, the Definition of Done is not.

The Scrum Team must demonstrateCommitmentto achieve the Sprint Goal. Commitment is one of the five Scrum Values, and it reflects the team’s dedication to the Sprint Goal, the work planned in the Sprint Backlog, and to collaborating effectively. Without commitment, the team cannot focus on delivering the Increment or achieving the Sprint Goal.

According to the2020 Scrum Guide, the Scrum Values are:

Commitment: Dedication to the team’s goals and delivering value.

Focus: Concentrating on the Sprint Goal and avoiding distractions.

Openness: Being transparent about challenges and progress.

Respect: Valuing each team member and their contributions.

Courage: Facing challenges and making tough decisions.

Why the other options are incorrect:

A. Completion:This is not a Scrum Value. Commitment drives completion, but "completion" itself is not a value.

C. Agreement:While agreement is important, Scrum does not define it as a core value.

D. Alignment:While alignment is critical to achieving goals, it is not one of the five Scrum Values.

The entireScrum Teamcollaborates on understanding the work of the Sprint duringSprint Planning. This includes theProduct Owner,Developers, andScrum Master. Each role has a contribution:

Product Owner:Explains the Product Backlog items, priorities, and their value.

Developers:Collaborate to create a plan for delivering the selected Product Backlog itemsand achieving the Sprint Goal.

Scrum Master:Facilitates the discussion to ensure alignment and understanding but does not directly plan the work.

According to the2020 Scrum Guide:

"Sprint Planning initiates the Sprint by laying out the work to be performed for the Sprint. This resulting plan is created by the collaborative work of the entire Scrum Team."

Why the other options are incorrect:

B. The Scrum Master and the Developers:This excludes the Product Owner, who is essential for providing clarity and prioritization of Product Backlog items.

C. The Product Owner and the Developers:While they collaborate during Sprint Planning, the Scrum Master also plays an important role in facilitating the discussion.

D. The Developers:The Developers alone cannot decide on the Sprint Goal or select work without input from the Product Owner.
